Don’t worry, Montgomery County PENNSYLVANIA animal shelters are not closing

I saw this note getting passed around on Twitter earlier: "MontCo Animal Shelter is closing today. Having free adoption from 12-4p! Sadly, all remaining animals will be euthanized."
Turns out, though, that this was all a misunderstanding — the Montgomery County animal shelter in question is located in TEXAS, not Pennsylvania, but somehow this news got twisted around and applied to our home state. I called both Last Chance Ranch Animal Rescue in Quakertown and the Montgomery County SPCA in Conshohocken, and both confirmed that they will not be closing their doors.
We're very glad all this is not true — but it's still as good an opportunity as any to get more info on pet adoption. Please check out both shelters' Web sites for more.
Montgumery, Texas….
